  • After a crazy-productive yesterday, today didn’t go so well. I am now eating a brownie. By the time we reach Portland, I will weigh 600 lbs. #
  • @deantrippe Send them to the troops. You can search http://anysoldier.com/ for soldiers/battalions specifically requesting comics. in reply to deantrippe #
  • A quick search (search tab is under “Where to send”) turns up 10 soldiers specifically requesting comics – 2 air force, 3 marines (4 women!) #
  • Sorry, sorry – first post was a reply, so some of you didn’t see it. Getting rid of comics? Send them to http://anysoldier.com/WhereToSend/ #
  • Our local UPS store will pack up boxes for the troops for free, you only pay postage. UPS stores are franchises, so YMMV. #
  • So, apparently I only bought about half as much edging as I needed. Not sure how that happened. I thought I bought too much. Bad math? #
  • @TheGeek616 Neat! We’ve sent out a several boxes in the past few years. I’m going to pretend you got one of them. in reply to TheGeek616 #
  • RT @TheGeek616: @kellysue I got a comic care package when I was in Iraq. We all loved it, & they went to others fast. Very cool. #
  • 6/28/09 A1C Sam Weaver requests X-Men, Capt. America & Deadpool. (If I was in DC’s mktg dept I would totally send him a comp box.) #marvel #
  • In other news, I think I need a good cry. Or alternately, to punch something. Or, better still, to perform both actions simultaneously. #
  • @mikedalena do you know a guy who drives a white minivan that has a star of David and an anarchy symbol on it in painter’s tape? in reply to mikedalena #
  • What is the blue square with the two yellow bars? #
  • Oh my god. AAAAAARGH!!!!! #
  • I accidentally posted as my son again. #
  • ARGH was in reference to creep I had to contend with at the tool rental place this morning. Had a brief meltdown, but I’m fine now. Thanks. #
  • @mikedalena Huh. I would have sworn it was a guy looking in your front window. But definitely came from that van. in reply to mikedalena #
  • @diesel WOW. S&AN was, what, 10-12 years ago?! in reply to diesel #
  • The guy who took our order for the concrete apparently did not actually take our order for the concrete. #
  • @diesel http://twitpic.com/ayrlw – Twins? #
  • Appt with vet canceled. What was I supposed to do next? I will make more coffee until I remember. #
  • The concrete is here! The concrete is here! #
  • Sidewalk happening. http://twitpic.com/b026a #
  • Progress http://twitpic.com/b08e7 #
  • @dustinharbin We’re still in KC, m’dear. Dennis is here helping finish up the work on the old house. in reply to dustinharbin #
  • Thing I did right today: did not look at credit report. Mortgage broker says it looks good and that’s good enough for me. Why upset myself? #
  • Brought Fraction’s desk downstairs for @aprillynn with @hotdoghater & @kevinmellon. It’s heavier than I thought. #
  • @jasonahurley Kevin was here at SEVEN THIRTY IN THE MORNING. He is a god to my people. in reply to jasonahurley #
  • Sidewalk done just in time for rain to start! Bye, @TerryTyson and Susie! OMFG. Thank you SO MUCH. #
  • We found a marble in the closet under the stairs when we were packing up the photos. I wonder how old it is. #

  • Internets, do your magik: what’s the cheapest source for bubblewrap or something like it (for moving art and framed things)? #
  • This morning’s potty time funny book does not so much bring the “funny.” #
  • Why will no one sell me ONE king mattress box? Do people really need them 5 at a time? #

  • “Try a snowy pair of harem pants this summer!” No. God, no. Don’t. #

  • @jademirror “Beware 12″ wide bubble.” Uh oh. How come? in reply to jademirror #
  • Better option still: Mattress Firm warehouse will *give* me one of their tempurpedic boxes as soon as they have an order for a king size. #
  • Argh. $50 shipping from ecobox, $91 from uline. Opting to pay more for local source of bubblewrap and picture boxes. #
  • @patrickkeller Olivia, you mean? Haven’t had an update since this am, but this morning things were looking up. May be out of ICU tomorrow. in reply to patrickkeller #
  • Things I will miss about KC: 3) the Zoo; 4) @thedarlingroom! All haircuts before the Darling Room were opportunities wasted. #
